BMW Motorcycle Fuel Tanks
BMW Motorcycle Gas Tank Buying Guide
The Kinds Available
There are several, and they come in all shapes, sizes, and capacities. You'll find that the category includes narrow, high-tunnel, low-tunnel , bobbed, stretched, prism, coffin, and dished.
What BMW Motorcycle Fuel Tanks are Made of
Generally, your BMW will feature a tank made of one of three materials: steel, which is exceptionally durable and weldable; plastic, which is lightweight, doesn't rust, and is low-noise; or, more rarely, fiberglass. Depending on the kind, it may even have an internal coating to stave off corrosion.
The Parts of A BMW Motorcycle Gas Tank and What They Do
- The liner: seals the tank, safeguards against deterioration
- The line: joins the tank to the engine and shunts gas to and from it
- The filter: prevents infiltrates from getting into the engine
- The cap: closes off the tank from the outside after you add or remove fuel
- The petcock: a valve, which controls the flow of gas; some have on, off, and reserve settings, while others run automatically
Signs it's Time to Replace Your BMW Motorcycle Fuel Tank
- If it's dented and you can't just pop out the dent, put on fresh body filler or another patch, and repaint
- If it's leaking and you can't weld or braze it
- If you're building a custom bike and need a higher capacity (absent being able to put on an auxiliary or reserve fuel tank)
- If you want to add a touch of personal style
In such cases, a new fuel tank is easy to install: most bolt on, and few need any extra welding or fabrication. If you are putting in a new one, however, be sure it's the genuine OEM article. BMW designs them specifically for its motorbike lines, after all, which means a guaranteed fit and finish.
